In their own words...
“Today, with youth education and empowerment at the center of our mission, we conduct camps and community outreach events with an emphasis on hard work, leadership and integrity. We also develop infrastructure to provide a place for youth to come together, to be inspired and to have a positive impact in their own communities for years to come.
Our aim is to not only develop basketball players, but future leaders, who feel inspired and empowered to Dream Big.”

The Giants of Africa foundation (GOA) relies on its footage library to raise support and awareness for the work it does. To become more organized, GOA centralized their content and made it easy to search and collaborate on videos using iconik.
Ditching duplication workflows
This type of workflow can be time-consuming, and if not done correctly, it can lead to lost or corrupted data. Another pitfall of these workflows is that they can make it difficult to manage and keep track of versions.
With Backblaze B2 cloud storage, GOA's media is stored, backed up, and secured. And with iconik indexing it all, it's easier to find and share media with others with 24/7 access from any device. The result of this is a media archive that is extremely accessible, searchable and ready for teams to collaborate remotely in the cloud.
